Extend existing Services?
New Services?
Turn-as-a-Service?
QoS?
Identity Management?
APIs to third parties?
Go OTT?
Other?
None?

Ingate’s SBCs do more than POTSoIP SIP.
They were developed for standard compliant
end-to-end multimedia SIP connectivity
everywhere.
WebRTC is just aligned – Ingate adds QTURN telepresence quality and the WebRTC
& SIP PBX Companion for the enterprise UC
“social network”.
THE “WEBRTC-Ready” ACCESS
9. WebRTC – Available Everywhere
A Giant Step: From POTS to Telepresence
•
•
•
WebRTC has the potential of telepresence quality: Opus
HiFi sound and VP8 / H.264 HD video
Last 50 years has brought mobility and SMS text to
telephony, but not improved telephony itself.
WebRTC may finally bring global person-to-person
communication beyond POTS (telephony wideband
codecs, 7 kHz, are still not AM radio quality…)
Does that bring revenue to service provides? To
carriers or which service provides?
•
Who earned from Skype?
Pre- AM Radio 3.5 kHz
20 kHz audio and
3.5 Mbps video
10. Telephony Value? WebRTC Accelerating
the Change to Broadband Value…
•
•
•
Mobile phones took over fixed POTS-type
telephony. Fixed telephony became UC.
We use fixed broadband with high bandwidth
at low cost (even though access is wireless)
The iPhone made Internet access “OTT”
more important than telephony for the mobile
phone.
WebRTC will not reverse that – It will rather
accelerate the trend of making the
Internet/ OTT broadband more valuable
than telephony.
General Trend
•
•
Telephony is now flatrate
(included in base fee)
Broadband is unlimited or
data amount charged
Carriers Provide the Pipe
•
•
Services are from others
and often free
The Access is the
Service
11. Network Service Providers, Carriers,
Have Cost For the Provided Bandwidth
With WebRTC We Need Quality on
Data Crowded Internet/OTT Access
•
Customer appreciation was for:
•
•
•
•
The “Telephone Network”
(PSTN, VoIP, IMS,
VoLTE… )
Fast surfing: Moderate bandwidth, quick
response (high value/bit)
Movies, TV, YouTube (streaming video):
Huge bandwidth, delay insensitive (low
value/bit)
And now with WebRTC: Quality
bandwidth, low delay (high value/bit)
Carrier cost is for bandwidth & usage
•
Few bits transferred
•
Still high carrier cost
12. Who Doesn’t Want a “WebRTC-Ready”
Broadband Access? It’s Win-Win!
It is NOT “Just About Bandwidth” with today’s data crowded networks
Prioritized bandwidth brings value to customers and network providers
The Killer
App Is Better
Broadband
Can be either
flat rate or
session
based
13. Broadband Access Routers Need
to Add Quality and Accounting
•
•
•
The networks already have QoS
mechanisms. Access devices need to
classify, prioritize and count usage.
WebRTC requires TURN servers for
ICE based NAT/Firewall traversal.

SIP requires SBCs for the same.
All can be included in the an
“WebRTC-Ready” or “RTC-Ready”
Access!

14. A Novel View on ICE – Q-TURN
TURN/STUN required for WebRTC (like SBC:s for SIP)
Knock-knock; Give my media a Quality
Pipe
•
•
•
•
Regard ICE as a request for real-time traffic
through the access router/firewall. Interpret
the STUN & TURN signals in the firewall.
Have the STUN/TURN server functionality
IN the access router/firewall and setup the
media flows under control.
Security is back in the right place - The
firewall is in charge of what is traversing
Enterprise firewall can still be restrictive

Q-TURN Enables QoS and
More:
•
•
•
•
Prioritization and Traffic Shaping
Diffserv or RVSP QoS over the net
Authentication (in STUN and TURN)
Accounting
15. SIP (Telephony) Can Also Go Internet/OTT
WebRTC starts there Internet+
•
•
•
•
Traffic will fade from the specific telephone network
anyway, when the always logged-in facebook,
twitter, gmail etc. can terminate phone calls in the
browser. (Compare how Apple took the SMS:s.)
SIP can also be end-to-end (also enabling global
UC).
WebRTC Prescribes ICE for NAT/firewall traversal,
which uses STUN & TURN, negotiated in SDP. SIP
most often use E-SBC:s.
Without telephony peering, incompatibilities and
POTS limitations vanish. Standard based real-time
communications allow for beyond POTS services.

WebRTC is an exciting new technology that
can be utilized by Telcos to expand IMS
services into the Web market.
Revenue opportunities for Telcos leveraging
WebRTC with IMS exists in both the consumer
and enterprise realms.
